Product Introduction

Propidium Iodide AI Summary

Propidium Iodide exhibits a diverse range of bioactivities. It shows strong binding affinity for DNA at pH 7, with a measured binding constant greater than 5.0 M^-1. In relation to acetylcholinesterase (AChE), Propidium Iodide has a dissociation constant (Ki) of 1100.0 nM in mouse and inhibits human AChE with an IC50 value of 32.3 µM. Additionally, it demonstrates inhibitory activity against human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with an IC50 value of 13.2 µM. The compound also demonstrates an extensive capability to inhibit amyloid beta aggregation; it inhibits human recombinant AChE-induced amyloid beta (1-40) aggregation by 82% at 100 µM, and self-induced amyloid beta (1-40) aggregation by 61.1% at 10 µM. Furthermore, Propidium Iodide exhibits moderate binding affinity for the NMDA receptor and affects calcium signaling pathways. In the context of antiviral activity, the compound inhibits SARS-CoV-2 induced cytotoxicity in Caco-2 cells by 15.98% at a concentration of 10 µM, and shows significant inhibition (76.32%) of the SARS-CoV-2 3CL-Pro protease at 20 µM. Overall, Propidium Iodide demonstrates potential therapeutic implications in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and as an antiviral agent against SARS-CoV-2..

Bioactivity

Description	Propidium Iodide (PI) is a red fluorescent dye utilized for cell staining and is suitable for fluorescence microscopy, confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, and fluorometer analysis. In aqueous solution, the Ex/Em of PI is 493/636 nm. Upon binding with nucleic acid, the Ex/Em shifts to 535/617 nm, enhancing the fluorescence signal 20-30 times.
Targets & IC50	HEK293 cells:1.1 μM
In vitro	METHODS: Propidium Iodide uptake and Flow cytometry to detect cell death: 1. Store the PI stock solution (0.5 mg/mL in PBS) in a dark place at 4℃. Immediately before use, prepare PI-FACS buffer by adding 20 µL of PI stock solution per 1 mL of PBS. 2. Collect suspended cells: Collect cells directly in centrifuge tubes and centrifuge at 500g for 5 min to harvest all cells. 3. Collect adherent cells: Remove and preserve the medium containing dead and mitotic cells. Isolate live cells using standard tissue culture techniques, such as incubation with trypsin-EDTA, and be sure to collect any washings (e.g., PBS). Add cells from the culture medium and cells from any wash solution to the isolated cells and centrifuge at 500 g for 5 min to harvest all cells. 4. Resuspend the harvested cells in PI-FACS buffer. The cells were incubated in the dark for 15 min at room temperature. 5. Determine the cell mortality rate by flow cytometry. [1] The above information is based on published literature. Experimental procedures should be appropriately modified to meet specific research demands.

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the stock solution preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:

For example, if the intended dosage is 10 mg/kg for animals weighing 20 g , with a dosing volume of 100 μL per animal, and a total of 10 animals are to be administered, using a formulation of 10% DMSO+ 40% PEG300+ 5% Tween 80+ 45% Saline/PBS/ddH₂O , the resulting working solution concentration would be 2 mg/mL.

Stock Solution Preparation:

Dissolve 2 mg of the compound in 100 μL DMSO to obtain a stock solution at a concentration of 20 mg/mL . If the required concentration exceeds the compound's known solubility, please contact us for technical support before proceeding.

Preparation of the In Vivo Formulation:

1) Add 100 μL of the DMSO stock solution to 400 µL PEG300 and mix thoroughly until the solution becomes clear.

2) Add 50 µL Tween 80 and mix well until fully clarified.

3) Add 450 µL Saline,PBS or ddH₂O and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous solution is obtained.
